According to Harvard research, eating oranges stimulates growth of Faecalibacterium prausnitzia.
This bacteria lives inside the human gut and generates serotonin and dopamine — 2 powerful molecules that elevate your mood.
Harvard is one of the top 5 research universities in the world. Gary Ruvkun won the 2024 Nobel Prize in Medicine. Where does he work ? Harvard.
If you feel sad, eat an orange 🍊
And they say money doesn’t buy happiness
Have a shower orange.
Put orange in fridge to make it cool. Take orange to shower. Observe orange and realize you can eat it as messy and feral as you want. Go full lycanthrope on the orange. Shower off the juice. Go back to being an animal pretending to blend into a society, but now, you know better.
I suggest using a drain filter, then you can just spit out any seeds and just drop the bitter stringy parts.
Those are bitter?? TIL
Aren’t they the same substance used in the white part of the peel below the delicious zest? Though I might be thinking about clementines and the white stringy bits that run from top to bottom along the centre. Been a while since I had a proper orange but don’t they have even more of that white stuff?
I think the membrane that surrounds the little juice packets is also bitter, if you separate it from the good parts.
Hello poor person. Are you sad because the unprecedented rise of global wealth inequality and corruption has robbed you of any realistic hope for success and stability? Have you tried eating an orange?
I can’t afford an orange, so no…
Sounds like something Big-Citrus would say.
I’ve had chronic pain and depression since I was a kid, I don’t think oranges can fix me, but thanks for the advice, I’m sure it’ll help someone that’s better off.
I don’t need the serotonin and dopamine inside my gut, I need it in my brain. …Will shoving an orange up my nose work?
look up gut-brain axis and mental health for some new insights
I used to take pieces of orange peel, bend them so the inside turns convex and inhale it through my nose, it helped me stay awake in class.
I do a similar thing but i bend the orange peel inside a short glass to spritz the oils, then occasionally lift the glass to my nose and enjoy.
Oh i forgot i also add ~80ml of whiskey, a squirt of simple syrup and 3 dashes of bitters first.
Einfach Orangensaft
Frag nicht was für Saft,
Im in this picture and i like it
Do lemons work?
No, those are the fruits of manufactured suffering, not joyous wonders
So I can burn my rage off trying to peel all the damn with off while getting covered in sticky juice?
Agent_nycto has a solution for that problem.
fuck you!

YSAK: If you don’t feel sad, eat an orange
Oranges are yummy and keep you from getting scurvy
This post has been paid for by The Orange Gang
Remember shower oranges?
I have never personally known anyone with scurvy… But yeah, they are tasty.
Ooh survivalship bias!!
You shouldn’t eat people with scurvy, regardless of whether you know them.
Thats whats known as anecdotal evidence
Ive never met anyone with ebola yet WHO just declared a global emergency
Apparently, most people getting scurvy these days are autistic and have strong food selection preferences so they just dont end up eating anything with vitamin c
I’m sure there are some folks that got a little too into carnivore diets that have managed to serve the scurve
Oranges and other citrus fruit are also significantly acidic, which is hard on teef. So try not to go overboard, or at least rinse your mouth with water afterwards if you eat citrus regularly.
By the same token, do not rinse your mouth with water after brushing your teeth. This gives more of the toothpaste’s fluoride a chance to adhere, from my understanding.
It is an exposure thing, so you’re better off eating it in one sitting rather than snacking on acidic things throughout the day.
Can I eat the juicy orang right after brushing my teefers?
Maybe save a step, and simply brush your teef with the orange!
I don’t wanna be that guy, but I have to be fair and ask:
Why should I know this?
Because you’re in denial about your depression
What if I’m depressed about my denial?
Oh no I’m not.
Because if you’re sad now, but you want to be happy - you should probably eat an orange. It’s a nice thing to know
Yeah I know, but its not in the body of the post per Rule 2. Plenty of really bad YSKs that didnt belong here had the same thing and I called some of them out too. So in order to be fair I have to ask it here too, thats all.
The fediverse is falling into the same “eh, close enough” trap that homogenizes communities. Look at nostupidquestions, it’s already a general questions community devoid of uniqueness
YSK is such a pale imitation of TIL. Please disagree, I’ve been baiting all fucking night and you all are way too chill. There is zero lively conversations on Lemmy. “but we don’t have bots” the fuck you don’t, in the mornings I see bots constantly importing reddit threads. I feel like I’m on fucking 1998 usenet. DEBATE ME!
You might like to have an orange.
I’ve been baiting all fucking night
Go away, baitin!
